WARNING: the thruster Quick
®
have been designed and manufactured for nautical use.
Do not use these appliances for other uses.
Quick

shall accept no responsibility for direct or indirect damages caused by improper use of the appliance or an improper
installation.
The thruster is not designed for maintaining loads generated in particular atmospheric conditions (storms).
It is strongly recommended to entrust a professional with the positioning and presetting of the counter flange on the hull.
These instructions are generic, and do not show by any means the details of the operations of presetting the counter flange,
which falls under the competence of the shipyard. In case of problems caused by a defective installation of the tunnel, the in
-
staller will be held responsible.
Do not install the electric motor near easily inflammable objects.
THE PACKAGE CONTAINS: retractable thruster - o-ring - hinge - lid bracket - steel cable - user's manual - conditions of warranty.
TOOLS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION: Phillips screwdriver - cutting nipper - drill and drill bits Ø 8,5 mm - hexagonal wrenches 2,5 mm

INSTALLATION REQUISITES
As said, despite all components and moving mechanical parts are of high quality, the correct installation of the retractable propul-
sion unit is fundamental for a safe and efficient use of the boat, as well as of the same propulsion unit.
Please note that the installation of such unit is an operation requiring experience as well as technical competence. It is recom-
mended to entrust the installation to competent staff and to consult the manufacturer or naval architects to fully evaluate the
entity of the work.
The Quick retractable thruster
®
has two individual movements.
The main movement, relating to the propulsion part, is of tilting type. The hinges on which the movement happens are conceived
to confer high resistance to the set and are located on the flat flange surface that joins the pre-assembled structure to the hull
solid support.
The secondary movement relates to the closing of the through-hull fitting from where the tunnel exits. This movement of the
tilting type takes place around the hinge, which has been designed and manufactured in order to open the lid without interferences
(if properly installed, as per instructions provided).
Electric motor, gear, levers and all other components are supplied by Quick
®
, already assembled on the supporting structure in GRP
and do not require adjustments, adaptations or sealing, unless indicated in this manual.
The Quick retractable thruster
®
is sold separately from the counter flange, that can be supplied in different materials to comply
with the different types of hulls. Quick
®
is able to supply stainless steel, aluminium alloy or GRP supports, fundamental for quick,
solid and precise installation.
For the fibreglass hulls the support must be laminate in the hull respecting the current Standards relating to joints. The pro-
pulsion unit distributes mechanical stresses to the hull through the counter flange. The force of the joint will be determined by
overlapped, up to standard, laminates.
